Bedding slurry separator BBU series

As the costs for high-quality bedding mate­r­i­al have increased enor­mous­ly in recent years, more and more inno­v­a­tive dairy farms are using organic bedding mate­r­i­al. This is made of the undi­gest­ed fibres (feed residues) of the slurry. The BBU concept (BAUER Bedding Unit) sep­a­rates, dries and dis­in­fects undi­gest­ed raw fibres from the liquid manure. This means that oper­at­ing costs can be reduced while at the same time milk pro­duc­tion is opti­mized. Since this is an eco­log­i­cal cycle, not only the costs for bedding mate­r­i­al but also dis­pos­al costs can be saved. This organic mate­r­i­al is pro­duced direct­ly on the farm and is avail­able at all times. ECO­NOM­IC BENEFIT OF THE USE OF RECY­CLED SOLIDS AS BEDDING MATERIAL Bio Bedding material ■No addi­tion­al bedding mate­r­i­al necessary ■High accep­tance of the bedding mate­r­i­al by the cows ■Increased milk production ■Low costs for the pro­cess­ing of slurry ■No addi­tion­al storage necessary ■Comfort and well-being of the cows is increased ■Very clean cows ■Easy to use ■Eco­nom­i­cal ■Envi­ron­men­tal­ly compatible ■Avail­able daily ■Con­stant quality FUNC­TION­AL­I­TY Sep­a­ra­tion of solids from the slurry The first step of the process con­sists of the sep­a­ra­tion of coarse fibres by a spe­cial­ly designed press screw sep­a­ra­tor. The solids are mainly undi­gest­ed residues from the feed, such as fibres from silage or straw. The sep­a­ra­tor presses out the solids, thereby reduc­ing the humid­i­ty level to a minimum. The drying drum is fed con­tin­u­ous­ly via an auger into a spe­cial­ly devel­oped rotat­ing drum made of stain­less steel.
